Best Armor Kingdom Come Deliverance
Feb 23, 2018 I tried many different playstyles (so far only 97 hours of playtime, still not done even with first playthrough ), but so far light armor (usually just a gambeson on body) and stealth works best for me. You can tell how much faster you are when you are not clad in plate armor. I've found the Magdberg Plate set to be very decent, but the noble's cuirass and gauntlet seem more durable and offer more defence than their Magdberg counter parts. Problem is I've never been able to find all the pieces for the full noble's plate set, and I'm wondering if anyone here has an opinion on the highest defensive/best armor?
Workers are NPCs that will allow you to staff and upgrade your buildings in From the Ashes, the new DLC for Kingdom Come Deliverance. Depending on their skills, the buildings you assing them to will improve, bringing you more profit and better benefits. If you want to upgrade your village all the way, you’ll want to know where to find best workers in From The Ashes, which is exactly what this guide will show you.
Where to find best workers?
You can recruit Kunesh in Rattay, but it seems he’s only available if you haven’t fought him in that one early main quest. While you’re there, you can recruit one of the water carriers as a trader. You can also convince Mark from Neuhof stables to join you.
Kingdom Come Deliverance Plate Armor
When it comes to artisans, you’ll need a good weaponsmith and armorsmith. The guy in Sassau, the one that gives you the Queen of Sheba sword quest, can be persuaded to join your ranks. As for the armorsmith, your best bet is probably Zach, the monastery blacksmith. You’ll need to take his side in the fued with Ota if you want his help, though, so you might have already locked yourself out of this choice.
Some of these hirelings will increase the amount of groschen their building generates on a daily basis. Others will unlock new options – you can’t use the trading post without a trader present, obviously. Either way, they’re useful, and you’ll want to hire as many as you can. There are many more NPCs you can hire – we’ve heard of butchers, bakers and such – but we haven’t had any luck finding them. We’ll update this page as we discover more workers, and you’re free to share your own choices in the comments.
Plate armor is prohibitively expensive in the early hours of Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Full metal armor suits just weren’t made for commoners, and you’ll have to work long and hard before you’ve got enough coin to purchase or even maintain a suit of plate armor. Unless, of course, you just find it laying around on the map. Screw size for electrical boxes.
Even very early in the game, there’s a certain location you can raid to collect a full set of plate armor and a powerful sword — the armor and weapon are in the St. George set, and they’re meant for end-game players only. If you’re an enterprising explorer, it doesn’t take much to find an empty camp with all this gear. Grabbing it basically makes the early game a breeze — you’ll be destroying everything and nobody can touch you.
Sure, it’ll cost a lot to get your plate armor repaired, but you can always save this heavy armor for bad situations. The armor doesn’t appear to be a pre-order bonus, or a DLC reward — it may be a bug that the armor appears so early, so grab it fast before it (might) get patched out.

How To Get End-Game Plate Armor Early Location Guide
To get a full set of Plate Armor and a powerful sword (worth about 10,000 coin) early in the game, you’ll need to travel to the town of Neuhof. From town, travel north and then east from the fork in the road until you find an abandoned camp on the left.
There’s an unlocked chest in the camp that contains a full set of St. George Plate Armor and the Sword of St. George.
The chest (and camp) are actually a specific location you’ll later arrive at in the story. During the ‘Epilogue’ quest at the end of the game, you’ll meet an NPC at this camp. That’s when you’re meant to collect this powerful set of armor. But, due to what might be a bug, anyone can arrive at this location, at any point in the game, and find this chest even when it isn’t populated by NPCs. This armor is free for the taking.
Enjoy! It makes the early parts of the game much, much easier.
